Upon receipt of a project, contractors shall be encouraged to participate in site visits and submit proposals. Failures by offerors to participate responsibly in site visits and submit proposals may result in the Government not exercising the option to extend the contract or exclusion of the contractor from further competition.

1.3.2.7.1. Occasionally, (generally during the last quarter of the fiscal year), the Government will solicit offers for projects for which funds are not certified nor readily available. Submission of proposals for these acquisitions is at the sole discretion of the respective MACC awardees and

MACC Solicitation FA4861-10-R-A200

Page 01010-14 their declination to participate in any or all such solicitations will not reflect negatively upon them.

1.3.2.7.2. Unless the Contracting Officer applies one of the exceptions noted below, each TO shall be awarded as a result of competition to the contractor who offers the best value to the

Government considering the criteria specified. The Contracting Officer’s decision as to the selection for award of a TO is not protestable unless the protest is on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the contract program. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to award a TO without competition based upon a determination that:

The agency need for the supplies or services are so urgent that providing a fair opportunity would result in unacceptable delays;

Only one awardee is capable of providing the supplies or services required at the level of quality required because the supplies or services being ordered are unique or highly specialized;

The order must be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order.

1.3.3. PROPOSAL PREPARATION: A TO RFP issued under this contract shall, except in rare cases, be issued to all contractors and will at a minimum include a SOO/SOW defining the project requirements. The project shall ultimately require the contractor to produce a full design, partial design, or no design depending on the level of design already available and provided to the contractor in the SOW. The project TO RFP shall, except in rare cases, consist of one of the following:

Full Design-Build (FD-B) that consists of a Statement of Objectives with minimal supporting documentation; the contractor shall be required to provide a 10% design along with their bid and, if awarded, shall complete the design in accordance with the TO and basic contract prior to commencing construction

Partial Design-Build (PD-B) that consists of a Statement of Objectives with a partial A-E design package; the contractor shall be required to provide a bid, and if awarded, shall complete the design in accordance with the TO and basic contract prior to commencing construction

Design-Bid-Build (D-B-B) that consists of a Statement of Work with a full

A-E design package; the contractor shall be required to provide a bid and, if awarded, shall commence construction in accordance with the TO and basic contract

MACC Solicitation FA4861-10-R-A200

Page 01010-15

1.3.3.1. If awarded a Task Order (TO) for the project, the successful contractor will, as necessary, complete the design to the 100% level. This will include participating in design reviews, conducted at Nellis AFB, at each design milestone (35%, 65%, etc) described in the

SOW. Cost proposals for TO RFP's will include a bid schedule and, when required by the TO

RFP, a construction cost estimate breakdown. The bid schedule as well as the line item categories to be used in the construction cost estimate breakdown will be provided, to the contractor, by the Government. In addition, the TO RFP may include, but is not limited to, the following, as applicable, based on the level of design required:

1.3.3.1.1. Government prepared Statement of Work (SOW), sketches, and any available as-builts, specifications, or design information.

1.3.3.1.2. Design calculations requirements.

1.3.3.1.3. Construction drawings requirements including professional certifications.

1.3.3.1.4. Timeframes for preparing the proposal, completing design work, and completing construction.

1.3.3.1.5. Contractor prepared specification sections and version required

1.3.3.1.6. Submittal requirements

1.3.4. PROPOSAL EVALUATION CRITERIA: Proposals received in the TO RFP format will be evaluated based on compliance with the TO RFP requirements and the proposed price.

The TO RFP shall indicate the minimum requirements which must be met in order for a proposal to be considered technically acceptable. Evaluations shall generally be conducted on a low-price, low-price technically acceptable (LPTA), or ―best value‖ basis. The type of evaluation criteria shall normally relate to the complexity of the requirement, but will be at the sole discretion of the

Contracting Officer. This means a bid-build may more likely be conducted on a low-price basis, a partial design-build may be conducted on a LPTA basis, and a full design build may be conducted on a ―best value‖ basis. Factors utilized in a ―best value determination other than price or cost are at the discretion of the Government but may include the following:

Past performance – TO performance or prior performance on other contracts

Quality of deliverables

Ability to meet schedule requirements

Relevant experience

Cost control

Potential impact on other orders placed with the contractor

Current workload

Design

Contractor’s technical understanding of the work

Most efficient and effective plan to accomplish the work
